Whatever the hell this conversation was:

Transcript:

Recessa, ↑4 ↓1: That’s completely idiotic, production exist because there’s demand for it.

commie, ↑1 ↓4: I think you understand that milk is produced as part of the mammalian reproductive cycle. can you describe the causal steps between demanding milk and it’s production?

friendlymessage, ↑3 ↓2: Do you think dairy cattle just randomly spawns on the planetary surface?

commie, ↑1 ↓3: do you think there’s a direct causal link between drinking milk and more being produced?

friendlymessage, ↑3: Are you fucking with me?

commie, ↑2 ↓3: no. I’m trying to illustrate that markets are not governed by natural law; they are populated by irrational actors.

friendlymessage, ↑2 ↓1: Yeah, but they’re not as irrational as you are and producing milk costs money. If there’s no market, they will stop because they are not fuckin lunatics and they don’t have infinite resources

commie, ↑2 ↓2: milk was farmed before markets existed. there is no reason to believe that will ever stop.

friendlymessage, ↑3 ↓1: That… must be the dumbest discussion I’ve had in a while. Please read through your comments tomorrow when you’re sober

commie, ↑1 ↓1: I’ve been sober all day.

friendlymessage, ↑1: Okay, whatever you say

commie, ↑1 ↓2: everything I’ve said is true. you’re objecting to reality, and being pretty shitty about it to me.

friendlymessage, ↑2: No, you’re just making a no sensical argument at all. Milk was farmed from dairy cattle because it was consumed by humans. It’s simple supply and demand. There is no rational argument at all that if mankind stopped consuming milk, it would still be farmed. Why would any farmer go through the effort to upkeep cows and keep them impregnanted to make them produce milk if they cannot trade it or won’t consume it? Yes, humans have free will but they won’t produce stuff with very high effort just for fun. Except maybe very sick minds that just enjoy animal cruelty. And you won’t elaborate what your actual point is anyway.

Also, not that it matters, but you’re arguing that dairy farming existed before the market is simply wrong. There has been trade between human civilizations long before we started domesticating animals.

:( it’s for science…

fellas is it gay to not die

crop so bad that half of the village starved to death

That’s a chair!

Pretty adorable tbh.

Seems like the cat is out of the bag.

If your carton can physically do that, then either your carton is paper and not carton, or your eggs have stones inside them.

You mean Säkkijärven?

At least he wore a suit!

I’m sick, so nothing :(

here you go: ✋

I could use a hug and/or girlfriend…

Seriously. Why the fuck would I want a machine that draws for me? What’s next, a machine that pets cats and laughs at jokes so that I can use all my energy towards making profit for our overlords?

this reminded me that I really need to shower, ty

Does “pope” no longer seem like a real word to anyone else here?

Well, from what I know, a lot of his propaganda involves religion, and doing that could very well affect his image.

I think it’s probably a combination of animals that eat bamboo and climates/habitats not suitable for bamboo.

Not really.
